Description
Task
Now that we have moved to jsonb for storing our content, we need to drop the old 1-25 typed columns for code sanitation and performance.
Proposed Objective
Application Performance
Proposed Priority
Priority 2 - Important
Acceptance Criteria
- The typed columns in the contentlet table should no longer be created or part of the dd
- all content operations should be unchanged
- Push publishing and integrity checker should work. Bundles created before the dropping the columns should still work
